ON AVERAGE ( obviously not a definite amount)

Ho much does it cost you guys to get a top on a machine (not fully redding)

had it from under a £10, also paid over a ton

So £50 a fair judgement?

no 2 machines the same, i've had a semi red machine cost under a score for a £70 top, then one thats ARB2/3 consistenly cost £70/£80. reds can be stubborn at times. too put it another way i would'nt risk having less than £200 on me too push a red. biggest amount i've been in is £140 total, but i got 2 x £35 then a £70 luckily.

I relaise no two machines are the same, But if you was going on the force (not already knowing the state of the machine) how much would you expect to put in for a top if

It was neither buzzing its tits off
or
Just given a Big top

dispite my advice, nobody here seems to keep records so any answer you get from people will be a wild guess, not an actual average

after i've done a particular red in the same place a few times i get too know give or take a day when they are next ready, some go like clockwork and i hardly ever miss them, some you miss then you don't have a clue where you stand with it. i've got about 30 reds on my route and when i've had one over i'll just put a reminder on my phone for the next hit. i find it impossible too remember else, especially after a few beers.

not that i've ever forced a red thats blue every board i would guess it could cost over £200 for a top, probably cost over £100 just too get past the £5 block if someone has just had a £70/£105 top

yeah its good to keep on top of things and know exactly how far you leave them off etc, phone reminders are crucial

why do you want to know, your thinking about just brute forcing? only play when through the £5 and nobody has had it for a while, redding or at JP stage

I was interested more than anything im no where near a serious gambler and stick in £20 or £30 at most, most times.

And was trying to figure out would it b e worth having one larger sesion than 2 smaller ones
